SELECTING A REALTOR TO REPRESENT YOUR INTERESTS
The following are key reasons to select our Team of professional Realtors, Full Service Realtors, to handle all of your Real Estate needs:
SELLERS
Our goal is to listen to your needs and meet or exceed your expectations. Since over 85% of Buyers begin their search on the internet, our marketing strategy is:
EXPOSURE-EXPOSURE-EXPOSURE
This is similar to the time tested rule for purchasing real estate:
LOCATION-LOCATION-LOCATION
If you owe more on your investment property than it may be currently worth, we are Distressed Sale Specialists and can help you get bank approval to sell your property at a loss absorbed by the lender.
Marketing Plan
To accomplish this, we include state-of-the-art Virtual Tours and Professional Photography on all of our listings. We provide a 24x7 access to all Internet shoppers with highly ranked search engine placement on the top real estate Internet websites including Realtor.com, REMAX.com, Century 21.com, ColdwellBanker.com, PrudentialProperties.com, Yahooclassified.com, Tourfactory.com, HomeSeekers.com, Homes.com, Blinkx Video Network, Clickable City Directory, CLRSearches.com, Google Base, HomeDebut.com, LiveDeal.com, Oodle.com, PropSmart.com, Trulia.com, YouTube.com, Zillow.com, ReoTrans.com, Foreclosure.com, Dupont Registry, and many more.
We also use multi-media advertising including ads in Print Magazines, Direct Mail and E-mail Blast Campaigns and Networking with other Top Agents in Southern California.
Increased exposure will likely result in more showings, better showings (Agents and Buyers), increased competition, higher sale price and quicker sale. We also provide protective contractual language and use a preferred lender to verify the Buyers credit and income information before final offer acceptance.
During the Escrow process, our Transaction Coordinator carefully monitors the Buyers loan status, Appraisal and all contingency removals to keep the Escrow process moving forward smoothly, minimizing and/or resolving issues and avoiding surprises.
BUYERS
We work well with all types of Buyers – Retail Buyers, Exchange Buyers, Up-Size or Down-Size Buyers, and Investors. Our goal is to find the best possible investment that meets your criterea and financial targets. We will assist you in finding a reputable lender with competitive rates and loan costs. We will negotiate on your behalf for the best possible price and terms and we will keep you informed during the entire process by regular communication to facilitate the necessary steps during your home purchase.
